When is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month?

On the 24th (or 23rd) of the twelfth lunar month, the Han people call it "off-year", which is a festival to worship the kitchen god. According to the folklore of the Han nationality, the Kitchen God will ascend to heaven on this day and report the merits and demerits of the family to the Jade Emperor. Resignation is to see the Kitchen God off.

Therefore, people are very pious and respectful to this god who lives at home. Sending stoves is to entrust the working people of the Han nationality with their yearning for a happy life, and to pray for the gods to bless the family peace, good luck and happiness in the new year. ?

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month every year, Shandong folks have the custom of steaming sticky cakes, and sticky sticky cakes are dedicated to the kitchen god. After eating the sticky cake, his mouth will stick, so he won't speak ill of the world. Therefore, there is a custom of eating sticky cakes on the festival of offering sacrifices to stoves.

Eating jiaozi in the north is the custom of many festivals, and eating jiaozi on the Festival of Sacrifice to the Kitchen is a farewell. There is a saying in the north, send jiaozi away and face the wind. So I used jiaozi to see the Kitchen God off on this day.
